None.
It's exceedingly unlikely that ANY general-use network OS will recognize or even run on it. Even if it did, as it lacks actual switching hardware, it would make a very poor switch.
As for "change its ... VLAN [configuration] with a simple click" that's almost certainly an XY problem.
Most of these boxes are just Celeron or Intel i3 based computers with a few extra NICs, they'll run pretty much anything just fine. They don't have actual switching hardware, but they've got enough CPU juice to push gigabit connections with a few simple rules/filters. I have an n5105 based one with six i226 NICs, with a simple bridge it can throughput close to 2.5gbps in iperf.
